Pros

Used by new Canadian citizens for job experience. Many other locations offer a good work environment.

Cons

Monthly layoffs as talented senior staff is replaced with junior staff. Management installed camera to monitor staff behavior. Learn Mandarin as this is not a multicultural office. Strict old school management leading to a culture of fear. Amazing to watch in this day and age. Do not question management. Old 90s vintage software tools. Too many legacy systems. Limited long term career prospects. It is who you know, not what you know that delays your job termination.

Pros

Varied project experience, plenty of travel. Opportunities to learn new skills, attend and take part in conferences. Large global company with possibility to move anywhere in the world within the company. Good working environment full of enthusiastic and intelligent people.

Cons

High turn over of staff, people seem to stay for only 1 -2 years before moving on, although this could be down to the location rather than the job. As such there are a lot of young staff, very few mid career staff and only a couple of senior scientists.

When workplace feels like summer camp or college years - review for CGG Massy, France processing center

Business Outlook

Pros

You can work flexible schedules and fit your hobbies in your agenda with some time to work around. They have a lounge with table football, nice comfy couches, organic tea, fresh orange juice, 4 flat TV screen. At every floor, coffee machine are free, fruits baskets are provided. They offer a prayer room. There is a sport club inside the company premises. People gather on lunch break to practice sports (variety of choice: indoor football, swimming pool, running, zumba, yoga) and at evening to drink beers, to go dancing, for a movie, squatch or working out. In addition, they a lot of renting services free : a library (with novels, comics...), a room filled with CD, diy tools. 2 people are in charge to refund you the concert tickets you paid (50% refunds), or to sell you very affordable tickets for amusement parks or to book for you travel (at 30% the price) or summer cabin/hotels.

Cons

Office culture is so laid back, people have no motivation to perform and tend sometimes to forget clients are kings. Promotions are based on clanic friendship and not added value recognition. Salaries are not competitive after 4 or 5 years of experience. A huge turnover forces to re-explain again and again the same thing to newbies.
